I continue to recieve the error message

Cannot find the file 'C:\Program' or one of its components. Make sure file name is correct.

It doesn't matter which profile I log on with. I have removed all programs from startup folder yet still get the message. Does anyone know the location in the registry to remove this.

I agree with Joseph, you have been virused. Remove this machine from the network at work ( I assume you are using NT at work and not at home), and contact your IT department. If this is a small network at home or business remove the machine from thenetwork till you can be sure that you have cleaned up everything. You may want to search registry for `C:\Program`, but that will be tedious.

you may want to look for these files:

Users can get the virus through email, through Internet Chat Relay (IRC), and through shared file systems. The presence of files named MSKernel32.vbs and Win32DLL.vbs indicate infection
